Steam review snapshots
Name entering screen won't respond to controller, use touch screen on it.+ Good amount of control mechanics + Cute characters, situations, story; sometimes silly but also charming in its attempts + Largely but…Got annoyed by a few things: -The grind for money/junk gets REALLY bad, you need about 1400 junk to max one headgear…Great game, very easy to pick up and play, can be enjoyed in small portions if your life is busy.Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by weird, single-player.
